My ex 2018 mk3 VRS has finally come up for sale at the arnold clark dealer that I sold it to in October. Its 2.0 tsi 245 DSG, plenty of extras etc and 13.5k miles. Showroom price (normally forecourt but they have no new cars to put in the showroom!) Is £25,600. I think it's brand new price 3 years ago was around £800 more after discount.

 

If anyone's looking for one it was absolutely mint when I left it, reg is PY68BXK and it's at workington. It's got virtual cockpit from the factory, DCC, reverse camera, folding mirrors  heated seats and more, plus some OBD11 tweeks like HBA. It's a meteor grey. 

 

Defo a sellers market it seems!!

My old Octavia vRS TDI 4x4 (2018/68) is listed nearly 6k above the price I got it for in Jan 2021, and they've had it since October '21. Jumped ship pretty quick in to a Cupra thanks to the higher prices but it just goes to show how crazy all this is at the moment.

My friend has a 290 cupra DSG on lease (2 years) and the valuation on that is over 30k. Don't know who's paying but someone must be! 

I used to have a Cupra Ateca before covid happened, the price I paid was I believe 27k. Now the absolute cheapest available looks to be 31k second hand, so I can believe that.

 

What's strange is that my current Cupra Leon Mk4, 3 months old, is only worth 25k according to the valuation sites. Crazy.

I've only recently got My octy (6months-ish)

 

But I part ex'd my mazda3 mps for it. . .that was a 2010 model (57k miles when I got rid), I paid 10500 for it just over 6 years ago. . Took almost 6k part ex for it. .less than a week later it was back on autotrader for 9995.

 

In the 6 years I'd had it the sellers price had only dropped £505!?!?!

 

Crazy market at the moment.
